Bio
Kathryn DePerrior, MBA, SHRM-CP
Melissa was my leader for three years. She truly exemplifies what a successful leader is - she championed for improving processes, being solution focused and doing our best work to support the company’s employees. Melissa led compensation initiatives that I supported for the annual merit processes and pandemic related pay practices. Melissa mentored and coached me on how to resolve employee issues while also trusting my own judgments and autonomy. I wouldn’t hesitate to work for her again!

I was first introduced to Melissa as an HR/Staffing intern back in 2015. I then spent the subsequent 3 years working under Melissa as a support employee to the staffing function and eventually a full-time recruiter. Melissa was one of the most instrumental figures for my success as a recruiter to this day. As a thought leader, she taught me the key fundamentals of recruiting including having a marketing/sales approach, relationship building, persistence, and time management. I often used to watch Melissa’s ability to strategically partner with key stakeholders to find top talent and also address market obstacles in a proactive manner. As a result, I’ve adopted some of her style and approach in my professional partnerships as a Talent Acquisition leader now myself. Melissa’s leadership skills and approach is a direct result in me wanting to continue and fulfill a long-term career in recruitment as I witness her as a change agent making significant positive impacts to every team she’s a part of. From direct supervisor to now an active mentor, I consider Melissa to be one of the most talented professionals I’ve had the pleasure to work with and continue to value her professional perspective to this day.
